Today is Kelly's Korner show us your life: collections. I really collect a ton of things like dishes, PURSES, jewelry, etc. My only traditional collection of something would be my Snow Village.

My Mom started my sister and I collections when we were in Jr. High/ High School. At the time I could have cared less about it, but now I am grateful. They are the Department 56 Original Snow Village collection. We would get one each Christmas and we would try to find some relevance to each one we picked.

Here are a few of my favs!

Starbucks this has been an ongoing obsession for a while now!

This church looks almost just like the Church that Ryan and I got married in. In Hunt,TX. It even came with a little sign that goes out front, like most churches have and on the sign my Mom put "Ryan and Kelly 10-13-01". We got it our first married Christmas together.

Of course we have a Hunting Lodge. With all of these crazy hunters I have around here it's one of the boys' favorites!

We also have a Ford Dealership! For our Ford business, they unfortunately don't have a Dodge Dealership. LOL!!

These are just of few of my collection. I have had to slow down because I am running out of space to put them. Luckily they only come out at Christmas, because little hands are so drawn to them!

My wonderful, handsome husband and high school sweetheart who has put up with me since August of 1995. He is the hardest working man I know. He spends most of his free time in the woods and the mountains. He is a fabulous rolemodel and father to our boys. He is my best friend and a blessing to my family and most of all me!

Barrett is my beautiful, crazy 8 year old; also know as B-Doodle. He LOVES hunting and playing outside. He enjoys trucks, tractors and tools. He lives outside, working hard every day. He keeps me on my toes and my house filled with dirt. Barrett's favorite activities include hunting trips and going to Rough Creek. He is my firstborn and I love him dearly.

Jack or Jack-A-Roo, is my bubbly 4 year old cowboy. He is a calm, laid back, cuddly little man. Jack lives to play and laugh with his brother. Jack is quiet, curious and not scared of anything! He is so sweet and caring, and LOVES to help! This little man gives me a heart attack daily with his daredevil ways:) He is a beautiful blessing from God.
